beforeAll is execute after tests begins

[DanielHGimenez]

I'm using jest-cucumber to run my tests. In definition of feature, I call setup() method that will set beforeAll, beforeEach and afterEach callbacks. The beforeAll callback will execute startInTestMode method, which will get up the server application that will be used in tests. When I run the tests, things that should be defined in startInTestMode are not defined yet. When I debug de code, the beforeAll is executed after tests begins.

const feature = loadFeature(__dirname + '/../features/create_redirect_url.feature')

defineFeature(feature, test => {

    setup()

    test('Successfully create a url for new user', ({ given, when, then }) => {

        given('user is logged in', userIsLoggedIn())

        [...]

export default function setup() {
    beforeAll(async () => {
        await startInTestMode()    })
    beforeEach(async () => {
        await Cart.deleteMany({})
        nock.cleanAll()
    })
    afterAll(async () => {
        await MongoDbMock.stopDbMock()
    })
}

export async function startInTestMode() {
    DotenvConfig.configure()
    InversifyConfig.configure()
    ExpressConfig.configure()
    ApplicationConfig.configure()

    await MongoDbMock.initDbMock()
}

I'm wondering if you meant given('user is logged in', () => userIsLoggedIn()) instead. I'm not sure what userIsLoggedIn is doing, but if that's actually performing logic that you'd expect to run when your tests execute, the way you have it now would run that logic immediately before your tests even start.

userIsLoggedIn is a method factory.

export function userIsLoggedIn() {
    return () => {
        nock(process.env.AUTH_URL!)
            .get('/auth')
            .reply(200, {
                id: 1
            })
    }
}

The problem is not in that function. In another function, I get data from process.env.KEY, which should be initialized when DotenvConfig.configure() is called. But the tests start, the Scenario begins, and beforeAll is not executed yet

Sorry, I made a mistake. The problem is not in jest-cucumber
